Anger Management Therapy

Anger Management Therapy – Counseling for Anger Issues

There have been many times in my life when I have felt angry. You likely have similar experiences; in fact, I’m sure almost everyone can relate to me on this issue. Anger is a common and very normal emotion. It isn’t widely known, but anger is actually an emotion that has the ability to provide us benefits and to serve us well; however, more frequently it is accompanied by negativity and brings in its wake far from desirable consequences. It’s much easier said than done, but anger can actually be used to show us areas in our life that can be improved. If an event triggers an angry feeling in us, we have the opportunity to identify the root cause of our angry emotions and also develop constructive solutions to prevent similar situations in the future. But if anger is left unchecked it becomes chronic, uncontrolled, and very unhealthy. It can have serious consequences for not only yourself, but for those all around you. Without properly managing our anger, it can eat away at our relationships, our health, and our personal state of mind and overall wellbeing.

Control your anger before it controls you

Anger, just like other emotions, is neither good nor bad. Emotions simply convey us messages, and anger is communicating to you that a situation is upsetting or maybe even threatening. Unfortunately, we often find ourselves reacting to our angry emotions in a negative, reflex-like manner. We blame our anger for our actions as well as the results those actions bring with them. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way. At Thriveworks Charlottesville our team of Therapists and counselors have years of training in the field of Anger Management, and we can help you to discover ways to prevent the negative consequences of anger and even help you to use anger for your good and also for the good of those in your sphere of influence.

If difficulty managing your anger is currently affecting your life in a negative way, please don’t wait! We’re ready to help you take on the difficult tasks of managing your anger, developing positive coping mechanisms for trigger events, and helping you heal your relationships.

Facing challenges like Anger Management shouldn’t wait. That’s why at Thriveworks Anger Management Counseling, we’re accepting new clients, and we operate with a no waiting list policy. The majority of our new clients are able to have a session scheduled within 24 hours of reaching out to us.

Thriveworks Counseling Charlottesville

Safe environment where clients matter

★★★★★
Reaching out to Thriveworks was a great decision. The service is excellent and the representative matched me with the best counselor for my needs. I have to admit that I was skeptical at first, but I was pleasantly surprised when I met Anita Dean. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about others. I have observed that she doesn't create cookie cutter plans. Instead, she creates a plan specific to the needs of her her clients. My husband and I lost our sweet family pet of over 15 1/2 years and it also caused the loss of a child to resurface. Anita, has handled my situation with care and assisted me as I walked through the grief process. I am so grateful.

Useless

★☆☆☆☆
Receptionist couldn't have been less helpful -- after waiting on hold 20 minutes, I told her I wanted to make an appointment to get assessed for some psychological issues, and she told me, simply, "We don't have anyone who can do that." That was it, no other comment. We just sat there in silence. She was unable to think, work, or put in any effort to help me try to find what I was looking for, or offer any kind of explanation of what she meant. I guess she was busy looking at memes on her phone or something. Or maybe ThriveWorks literally does not assess people for their psychological issues before counseling them? SOOOOO confused and frustrated.

Wonderful to talk to

Jennifer Smith was wonderful to talk to and was very clear about how to progress for our personal needs. It didn't feel like a counseling session and she made it very comfortable to just have a conversation

No help available

★☆☆☆☆
Does not have the ability to meet advertised capability. Needed help with my daughter and made the first difficult call to be told no appointment available till after middle of May. One therapist only no other options. My daughter and I were excited when looking at the website and shocked on the outcome. However the phone specialist was very pleasant and he handled the call with the utmost respect.

Top Notch Counsel

★★★★★
We've been seeing Anita Dean weekly for over 6 months now and have felt so rewarded by our time together. We have nothing but totally positive things to say about her approach, demeanor and the positive change that she has helped us achieve. We feel comforted and supported by Anita's presence and we would strongly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate counsel. She's top notch - bright, funny, relatable and most importantly, we always leave feeling renewed!

The office is friendly and inviting, sessions always start on time and the insight we have gained from Anita has proven to be invaluable. We cannot thank enough.
